to maintain a strong but comfortable sensation at the treatment location (see
Section 4.8 - Using BioWaveGO).
6. The optimal body postion during treatment is when the tissue in the treatment
area is a little bit taut or in a stretch position. This will cause the sensation you
feel encompassing your pain site to be stronger and in deeper tissue (see Section
4.6 - Body Position During Treatment).
7. During the treatment, try gently moving the part of your body being treated so it
feels like the treatment is really focused on the right spot. This will provide the best
treatment outcome (see Section 4.7 - Motion During Treatment).

focused in a volume of tissue the size of half of a grapefruit under and surrounding
each Pain Relief Pad. Therefore at least one Pain Relief Pad must be placed directly
over the center of the painful area.
The BioWaveGO
®
stimulator alternates the delivery of its high frequency electrical
signals to both Pain Relief Pads so the sensation feels continuous in both Pain Relief
Pad locations simultaneously. The Pain Relief Pads are independent of each other
and each one can treat a distinct volume of tissue under and surrounding each Pain
Relief Pad. The sensation felt at each location is a deep smooth tingling and pressure
sensation.
